Ask HN: Is there no escape from working 9-5?

I have spent almost no time on other people's payrolls (other than 1Y as part of a buyout) and have made it to semi-retirement with money in the bank, so avoiding 9-5 absolutely can be done.

I'm now doing a PhD!

Here is stuff I did:

So a bunch of consulting/contracting and start-ups.

Drop me an email if I can help more.

This is an impressive resume and some cool things you do!

I am, unfortunately, too old to start a PhD right now.

I suspect that that is untrue! How old do you think I am?
